Today's devotional reading for:
Friday, Jul 3, 2020 Blessed Is The Nation
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord …”
— Psalm 33:12
This time of year is always a perfect time to dwell on the founding of our nation.
Did you know that God’s providence played an enormous part in the settling and founding of this country?
George Washington alluded to God’s providence many times as he recounted our nation’s development.
Let’s look at just one stunning example, forgotten by many today.
In the first year of the Revolutionary War, America almost lost the entire conflict.
British General Howe had cornered Washington’s army in Brooklyn Heights.
The British forces surrounded the American forces in a great semicircle, and behind them British ships could close them off at any time.
In fact, the British intended to do just that the next day and thus end the war.
The Americans had no way to escape.
Nevertheless, that night, Washington endeavored to escape, realizing the helplessness of his position.
He collected every vessel he could find, from rowboats to sloops, and set about to evacuate his troops by night.
Counselors advised against such an escape because the British would see them in the moonlight and hear the splashing of their oars.
But Washington was determined to go ahead anyway.
Just as the American troops began to launch their vessels, a strange and unusual fog rose up and completely covered all of them.
The next morning, when General Howe gave the orders to close the trap, he was astonished to find that Washington and his entire army had disappeared.
Precisely because of many incidents like these, Washington wrote after the war:
“I am sure that never was a people, who had more reason to acknowledge a divine interposition in their affairs, than those of the United States.”
Today, thank God for His providence during the formation this great nation.
And please join me in reminding people of God’s hand in founding it.
Let’s give credit to Whom it is due.
“The hand of Providence has been so conspicuous in all this, that he
must be worse than an infidel that lacks faith, and more than wicked, that has not gratitude enough to acknowledge his obligations.” George Washington | ||||||

Christ Jesus prayed that all those who would believe in Him would be ONE, just as He and the Father are ONE; that they be brought to complete unity so that the world would know that He was sent by the Father. (John 17:20-23)
Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever
Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.
Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.
To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.
Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!
Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!
Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!
